You need a custom group for that field to be visible as that field is only visible to admins by default. The custom permission group must have the viewing plus editing permission turned on for the personal category which is the category that stores the age and birth year fields.

 

The reason why editing permissions are needed is because this data is sensitive so to access it the highest level of permission is needed which includes editing access.

Hi ​@Lihi Rabinov 

This is still the behavior for the users to be able to see the birth year and age.

This data is considered sensitive., so to access it the highest level of permission is needed which includes editing access as mentioned by Roque.

Employees can see the “personal” section that states the birth date/ birthday/ age. I was told that in order to solve this, I need to move the birth date to a non visible section. If I take away the permission to view this section, employees will not see their colleagues’ birthdays. Correct?

I have hidden the birth of date. However if you click on this, it is still visible. How can I fix this?
